Staff were lovely. The hotel was very clean, including the glasses and cups nomarks. The pillows were really plump, and i woke up several times as my neck just hurt. My daughter was the same, so an alternative for pullow options would be great. Also i was dissappointed with the parking options 38 for valet parking! No option to park your own car but the description shows carparking is available.

Good location,room was nice and clean. Staff needs more training, system needs to be improved. have to show the confirmation email to 2 staff members to confirm and double confirm we have free breakfast included in our booking. Luckily they found us on the list. And Unfortunately When we do the check out, the receptionist wants to charge us again for the breakfast so we have to find the email again to triple confirm it with her.
